Powder in the Alps

Day trip to Alpen Mountain. Day started cold with very dry and very deep powder. Ski penetration was easily 30cm. It was snowing heavily in the morning, clouds where in and out. We saw an old size 1.5-2 avalanche on a north aspect at around 1600m elevation but new snow covered the crown already in the morning. Snow started to get more heavy as the day progressed. Snow at around 800m was like mashed potatoe.
